The Role of HMGA1 and Height in Breast Cancer Risk and Prognosis: Insights from UK Biobank Data
While HMGA1 influences height, no direct association with increased BC risk or poor prognosis in tall women was demonstrated. Nevertheless, tall women with BC had worse survival, suggesting height might be considered in treatment decisions. Future studies should explore mechanisms linking height to BC outcomes.
